Most of the guys want to access Linux box from Windows machine just to do some programming on the command line. The "Putty Tool" is the solution for this. Just google for "Putty" and download this small package(less then 1MB) and keep it on your desktop.

Just you need to configure the linux machine IP on this Putty tool and connect to Linux machine.

If you face any problem in configuring Linux IP, then let me know, i will help you out.


If you think this is help full, please rate this.

So basically, if you want to control linux, get Putty? Yes, its a good ssh client, but you need an ssh account on what is probably going to be a unix server.

you basicaly need to do a few more things to get it working. It seems logic, but the ssh daemon must be running on the linux box, but something not everybody thinks about is opening the right ports on the firewall. If you forget to open this port (tcp port 22) then you won't get any connection to the box .
